Albertine

Text File
This song to play in the acutal key you have to put a capo on 3rd fret.
TO get it to sound realistic you need to hammer on a couple of chords.
Am = always hammer on your 2nd and 3rd fingers
C = is the simple C with no base E on it, and you just hammer on your 2nd finger.
a really nice sound.
If you play along with the audio you should get the strum pattern easily.
Enjoy
V1
Am
I am sitting still
C
I think of Angeline
Am
Her mother's voice over me
And the bullets and in the wall
C
Where it fell silent
V2
Am
And on a thousandth hill
C
I think of Albertine
There in her eyes
Am
What I don't see
C
with my eye oh
CHORUS
Rwanda
F C
Now that I have seen
G
I am responsible
Dm F
Faith without deeds is dead
C
Now that I have held you
G
In my own arms
Dm Am C
I cannot let go till you are...
V3
Am
And I am on a plane
C
Across a distant sea
Am
But I carry you in me
In the dust on, the dust on, the dust on,
C
In the dust on, the dust on, My feet
CHORUS
Pre-bridge: Am, C,
Am
I will tell the world
C
I will tell them where I've been
Am
I will keep my word
C
I will tell them, Albertine
CHORUS
V4
Am
And I am on a stage
C
A thousand eyes on me
F this last F is played X-X-3-2-1-1 and
I will tell them, Albertine you hammer on the 3rd string with
Am your 2nd finger. You will understand
I will tell them, Albertine when you hear it.
